In his
late, color masterpiece Kagemusha, Akira Kurosawa returned to
the samurai
film and to a
primary theme of his career - the play
between illusion and reality.
Sumptuously reconstructing the splendor
of feudal Japan and the pageantry
of war, Kurosawa creates a
historical epic that is also a
meditation on the nature
of power. The Criterion Collection is proud to
present Kagemusha for
the first
time in
its full-length version in
the United
States.
